howardjoyce Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 To my dismay, my grill went missing from my backyard while I was on vacation. I filed a police report and have checked local craigslist and other on-line adverts to see if someone might be trying to sell on-line....but nothing so far. The grill in question was a Terra Blue Ultimate 23" OTB (affectionately named "Tatay" by my young son) purchased in 2011. I don't assume that these get stolen very often (if at all), so would appreciate it if anyone could let me know if they see this model for sale in the Southern California area. Thanks....

MacKenzie Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 What a heart break:(:( I hope the authorities catch up with the thief and that you get your grill back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 CRAP! Start checking those who have been in your back yard. Someone had to have known it was there and what it was worth. Your basic sleazeball has no idea what you had or what it was worth. Somebody you have had in your backyard knew you were on vacation and took your grill. Sorry to say, but I'm afraid its true. I hope that you get Tatay back. This sucks, my friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Didn't the neighbors see anything? It would take several folks and some gear to move a KK around. Not something that can be done all that clandestinely. Hope you get Tatay back (or your homeowners will cover the cost to replace it)!!

DennisLinkletter Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Argh.. Except one that went missing on it's way back east out at one of the largest truckers terminals, I've never heard of one being stolen. I had one guy get all his stainless grates stolen twice.. soon after their newly installed CCT captured some neighborhood kids looking inside for a third go. Hope it turns up.. Sorry for your loss..

tinyfish Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Fingers crossed it turns up. Some say I'm paranoid but the couple of times I have sold something on craigslist I've never let them come to my house. Better safe then sorry especially for a few measly dollars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Really sorry to hear about that. Just keep looking on Craigslist and e-bay. If they are going to sell it, eventually it will show up. They may wait a while but eventually it will. I imagine Dennis has records of everyone who has ever bought one so proving it isn't theirs should be fairly easy.

GoFrogs91 Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Terrible to hear. Agree with CC. Take a look at the landscapers and lawn guys. Your Terra Blue cousin wishes you luck in tracking down the thieves.......or alternatively that Tatay falls over when they are moving her and crushes them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Set a google alert for 'Komodo Kamado For Sale'... That sucks. I'm guessing it was stolen in broad daylight by a crew that may have looked like they were supposed to be there doing something legit. Hard to imagine it getting moved out silently at night without someone noticing, but maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGGARY Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 WTF ! That really sucks that some Low Life(s) would go into your backyard and steal your KK. I feel for you. Hope you are able to get it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilburpan Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 I’m really sorry to hear about that. Hope that you get it back, or if not, that your homeowner’s insurance will cover the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 That's just bad business. Let's hope for some evil voodoo KKarma for those involved in the heist! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilburpan Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 A terra blue KK 23" popped up on the Palm Springs Craigslist. http://palmsprings.craigslist.org/app/5088908702.html This could be it. The price is way below what one would normally price a used KK grill at. However. Please call the cops and let them deal with it. It's not worth getting hurt over a grill.

EGGARY Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Are there Serial #'s to identify each KK ? If so, see if Dennis can give you the number. Then if it is yours, just match the #. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
